Pyramidhe@d: Useful. The render of the metal is very good. Looks very copper like. The shape is rather "weird" so to speak though but good enough nonetheless.

hmm, should i keep the hole?

EDIT: ah well, removed it.

 

[The Panda]

It still looks like the hole is there, remove the black color and replace with orange or red, or one of warm colors you already have on the icons.

 

[kola]

u sure u saw it when the hole was there? cuz it rly doesnt looks like if he was still there lol.

 

[The Panda]

I mean it sure does look like a hole to me.

 

[kola]

lol, its where u are hiting with the hammer

 

[-Berz-]

I does look like a hole :>

Hmmm... I think there is some nice background missing

 

[The Panda]

lol, its where u are hiting with the hammer

Still have no idea what your talking about? i know a hole when i see one, haha.

 

[kola]

u see that hammer? my hammer has almost the same angle, if u cant understand what is the hitting part well you are ..........

just that if i highlight it with orange, i would need to make another source of light.

Remove the black color and replace with orange or red,

its already red..

The handle looks like it's glued to the head...
BTW, that's a dark red flat surface, not a black colored hole... (Is it that hard to notice?)
I can suggest (too) to make that surface lighter.

 

[kola]

yeah, i might rework the handle lol, i'll check what i can do for THHEEE HOLLLLE

 

[Vercas]

I forgot to mention that this icon is just awesome. It deserves a 5/5 rating!

 

[The Panda]

Just forget it, if you think its fine then whatever.

 

[kola]

new version..

 

[Vercas]

It looks better!

 

[Pyramidhe@d]

alright. this is what i meant by the pole needing to look more round. i know you did the shading the way you did to show the light source but you still need to convonce the human eye that the pole is round.

i really dont like drawing over other people's work but in this one i just went over with dark red, the underside of the the pole so it looks 3d. the top side, i made the highlight faint away so you still get that sense of the light source.

the thing that army is mentioning about the hole in the hammer is that you got a really dark circle with a really light rim/edge. to the human eye, this registers as a hole of a sort. simple make the dark part less dark or blend in around the edges. putting straight light stripes will show for sure that it is a flat surface.

oh lol, sry for updating it so late, i completly forgot this icon lol.
